Tour de Pharmacy Brings The Spectacle Of Doping In Cycling To HBO

A bit of a confession here, up until the noose started to tighten I was was one of those people who believed that Lance Armstrong was clean(ish). Once the dam broke and he had to come clean(ish) it was a bit heartbreaking to see but it also opened my eyes – and the eyes of many cycling fans – to just how deep and wide doping in cycling was (and still is, I’d bet). I do have a lot of thoughts on the whole thing but for now, I wanted to share with you guys the trailer for an upcoming mockumentary on HBO called, Tour de Pharmacy. This piece will poke fun at doping in cycling through the eyes of Andy Samberg.

With a cast of such people as:

Freddie Highmore

Orlando Bloom

John Cena

James Marsden

Julia Ormond

Dolph Lundgren

Maya Rudolf

Jeff Goldblum

Danny Glover

… and more, this is a fun look at a serious problem in the sport of professional cycling. Also, there may or may not be an appearance by Mr. Armstrong himself!
